Wacky, cartoonish martial arts action with a big CGI budget and rampant imagination, similar in tone to Stephen Chow's preceding work, Shaolin Soccer. It's very much a case of style over substance, as the plot only serves to move us from one outrageous set piece spectacle to the next, and makes no bones about it. That's Chow's style, with far more focus on effects-laden fighting techniques than inscrutable storytelling, and it works for him. We're treated to dozens of unique forms, from countless unexpected sources, as nearly every denizen of a dusty, lower-class slum turns out to be a kung fu master of some sort. Most memorable, of course, is the chain-smoking old landlady, who batters every comer and effortlessly steals each scene without even pausing to pull the curlers from her hair. It's indulgent and silly, watery and childish, but it's also richly entertaining and singularly stylish. Great background party-viewing material.

This is one of my favorite movies. The action and comedy is pretty much relentless. Someone mentioned that it slows down a bit at the end and I do agree with that, but I still like the ending overall. I'll always keep this movie in my collection, it holds up well to re-watches.

Went into this one totally blind as to its contents, truth is, is that I was mooching round the shops yesterday and came across an Asian triple pack DVD at a bargain price, since one of the films was Jet Li starrer Unleashed, i thought it was wort More

Stephen Chow approaches the very real discipline of kung-fu in the way I view most kung-fu movies, it is all a bit silly, a bit preposterous and really should not be taken too seriously. Therefore, it is obvious that this type of kung-fu movie would appeal to me more than the kill everyone, dead ser More

Very underwhelming. Hell, that may even be an understatement. I went into this film expecting to be relatively entertained because so many familiar reaction channels on Youtube have reacted to this film and seemingly loved the hell More
